On Sunday, Dan McGraw and Mike Garron left Long key marina in Waretown¬†as
the sun was rising as usual on their 25' Steiger¬†in search of¬† some¬†great
fishing.

They broke¬†Barnegat inlet and headed North to fish with the rest of the
party boats and¬†pack around the tires. After catching 12 short fish¬†they decided
to move away.¬†Headed South past Harvey Cedars¬†they found some nice structure in
50' of water.¬†It was getting late in the day and the drift was just starting to
pick up.¬†They derided to¬†change out¬†their baits and loaded up a spro
bucktail¬†with a green teaser trailing along. After 3 or four skates¬†they decided
on one more drift... then Bang.¬†¬†Reeling the fish up and¬†having some fun
thinking it¬†was another skate, the fish surfaced and¬†the game faces were
on.¬†They netted the fluke and immediately wanted to get it on the scale.

The
Fluke measured¬†and even¬†31 inches and weighed in at 11lbs. The arsenal that was
hit was Berkley 3" green gulp and spearing.¬†¬†
